lIKLSINGFORS, July 11.— Indications of ihe presence of German officers and •(iei-man soldiers on the Petrograd front havj been obtained from time to time, and now absolutely definite evidence has been placed in the hands of the Finnish Government. The German headquarters directing the German policy in Russia, and largely the Bolshevist policy, is situated in the Morskaya, Petrograd. Information from Reval is that Germany is looking upon a union with Russia us the sole means of revenging 'herself on. the Allies, which is especially noticeable among the German, officers iu von. Der Goltz's array. Bolshevist papers of July 5 announce General Denikin's capture of the towns of Bogoduhov aud Balashev, west of Saratov. Trotsky, in an article in the lii'Vostia oh July 4, • entitled "A Threat to Verenish and Kursk," says it is impossible to transport troops from the Kolchak front, and the only hope against General Denikine lies in disorganising his army, and in a world-wide revolution. With the object of encouraging the army the Bolshevists proclaim that people are dying in Finland. Thin is a good specimen of Bolshevism, since food in Finland is plentiful and increasing.
